The Apothecary


After three (almost four) intense, but amazing, weeks of The Fantasy Faire I took a sort of break from exploring in Second Life. That is not new, I need this every year after the Faire – to get back to earth and unwind a bit. I still have not posted all my pictures of the…

The Fairelands have arrived!


Finally, after waiting a year, the Fantasy Faires Fairelands have emerged from the mist and have opened their portals to the public! Avatars, clothing, furnishings, gadgets and exclusive items are available from more than 200 of Second Life’s top Fantasy Creators across ten stunning shopping sims designed by some of the visionary artists behind many…

The Ruins of Deepmarsh


Sometimes all I want to do, when logging into Second Life, is go to a pretty place and take pictures. Just wandering about or sit somewhere and look around, listening to some good music and enjoy the scenery. That is what I did tonight. Real life has been hectic all week and in The Ruins…

It’s coming, the 10th Fantasy Faire


Oh yes, it is that time of year…. the Fairelands are (almost) in sight and the Fantasy Faire is around the corner. This year it will be the 10th time this wonderful event takes place in Second Life. With ten shopping sims to explore – all without a doubt magical and fantastic! In addition to…

50 Cats


It’s not that I hate cats, hate is a too strong emotion or word. I just don’t particularly like them. The feeling seems to be mutual, so I don’t feel too bad. To explain a bit more; in RL I am very allergic to cats, they make me sick and take my breath away –…

Time for a new skyhome!


While I liked my skyhome as it was, I also felt the need to change it. Just because I can! I had been looking at all kinds of buildings the past month, but when my friend Huckleberry Hax showed me his latest creation, Dragonfly, I knew I found my new house! The moment it was…

L U N A – The story of Humankind


“The year is 2024 — a privately funded team of scientific experts, botanists, and astronauts has been assigned with the task of taking selected specimens from earth in an attempt to colonize the planet known to us only as – L U N A –. Luna is the last hope for the survival of the…

2017, my Second Life year in pictures


With just a few days left before we enter a new year, I got a bit nostalgic and scrolled down my Flickr stream to have a look back. While 2017 has not been a particularly great year for some months, it is never a problem to find the good stuff that happened, the great places…

Christmas surprises


So I was going to write a Christmas blogpost, with all kinds of well wishes, looking back at 2017 and looking forward to 2018. But real life chores kept me busy (amongst other excuses) and when I finally had the time to login and sat for it, I got distracted. In a good way. No,…

Vanity Poses by Vanity Mirror


One great way to get back on track with my blogging, after being quiet for way too long, is to participate in a blog-challenge. Of course there is always something to blog about, but a blog challenge adds something different, it makes you look for specific topics and can lead you in a surprising direction….

Holiday Trace


To my delight Kylie Jaxxon has once again created a version of her wellknown and much loved The Trace. This time it is called Holiday Trace, and when I saw the announcement on Flickr that it would open soon, I was counting the days to go see it! Today it opened and it is without…

White


While overhere in Holland it is still Autumn, and not the romantic colourful kind we have in Second Life but the dirty, brownish mud-like kind we have to deal with in real life..the lands in Second Life are slowly turning into snow landscapes. It won’t be long before the Christmas decorations will appear and you…

Mother Road


INKtober ended, Halloween is over and today I removed myself as owner/manager from the [SL Blogger Support] group, being now a regular member again till the group will close its doors on 1 december. A perfect evening to go out in Second Life and explore a destination I had not been to before. Mainly to…
